Check some of the other threads here for how people are handling it. I think the system is overall irrelevant. In all X5s, the battery and RAM are in the back. There is no low-level output, so you'd tap into one of the speaker runs for your source signal on and off. In terms of remote on/off to disable it as desired, you'd probably want an amp with a remote control (and ideally wireless of course).

That said, speakers need time to break in. Listen at different volume levels and different types of music before you start cutting into wires. It may suffice from the factory.
